Why It’s Important to Update Your Address with mydentist?

Keeping mydentist informed of your new address ensures that you continue to receive timely and accurate communications regarding your care. Here are a few key reasons why this step should be a priority:

1. Appointment reminders and updates
   With over 4 million patients across more than 650 practices, mydentist relies on accurate contact details to send automated reminders and essential updates.
2. Consistency across NHS and private records
   Whether you're receiving NHS treatment, private care, or have a dental finance agreement, your address is central to managing your records.
3. Digital forms and communications
   Many forms and pre-appointment documents are sent via text or email. Without the correct information on file, these may not reach you.
4. Billing and insurance accuracy
   Ensuring accurate address data reduces the risk of billing errors or issues with insurance documentation.
5. Emergency contact and clinical relevance
   In the case of urgent care, having the correct address on file helps ensure appropriate support and continuity of care.
